Engine is not stored in WorkSpaces. That defines the "context" engine, which
is used for the entire UI.
The engine used for the poll of nodes (add node menu, new nodes when "Use Nodes")
is obtained from context.
Introduce a ViewRender struct for viewport settings that are defined for
workspaces and scene. This struct will be populated with the hand-picked
settings that can be defined per workspace as per the 2.8 design.

* properties editor: workshop + organize context path
Use Scene Settings
==================
For viewport drawing, Workspaces have an option to use the Scene render
settings (F12) instead of the viewport settings.
This way users can quickly preview the final render settings, engine and
View Layer. This will affect all the editors in that workspace, and it will be
clearly indicated in the top-bar.
Properties Editor: Add Workspace and organize context path
==========================================================
We now have the properties of:
Scene, Scene > Layer, Scene > World, Workspace
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object
[Scene | Workspace] > Render Layer > Object > Data

This changes the Cycles exporting and Cycles/Eevee UI code to support both
output material nodes, giving priority to the renderer native one. Still
missing is Eevee code to prefer the Eevee output node.
- Use uniform color world for the world probe.
- Refactored the Fresnel expression to be better with Area Lights.
- Squared the roughness for default materials.
Although this wasn't so obvious since it
only showed up for factory settings and in the preferences window.
Panel display order depends on registration order,
Sorry for the noise. On the bright side we no longer need to move
classes around to re-arrange panels.
This mostly affects physics panels. Any engines relying on
RenderEngine.use_game_engine flag to show/hide panels will need to be
updated. The COMPAT_ENGINES technique is how we usually deal with this.
One issue with use_game_engine is that I cannot find a way to set it; it
appears only the BGE can set it. This means (without this commit)
external RenderEngines cannot get rid of the default physics panels.
The RE_GAME flag (the C flag behind use_game_engine) is pretty hacky
and we should look into removing its usage where possible.
* Remove Stars feature. This was a quite minimalistic feature and there are
better alternatives with more control (particles for example).
Removal discussed during BCon13 developer meeting and already years before, time to do it..

* Code cleanup, removed unneeded code.
* Style cleanup, don't break lines to early
(unless marked as pep8-80 or pep8-120 compliant)
* Keep 1 line after layout declaration empty.
World Context:
* Made world id block wider
* Don't show texture user when Cycles engine is used
Other:
* Change Dopesheet > DopeSheet in User Preferences Theme section for consistency.
- Make gettext stuff draw-time. so switching between languages
can happens without restart now.
- Added option to translate visible interface (menus, buttons, labels)
and tooltips. Now it's possible to have english UI and localized tooltips.
- Clean-up sources, do not use gettext stuff for things which can be
collected with RNA.
- Fix issues with windows 64bit and ru_RU locale on my desktop
(it was codepage issue).
- Added operator "Get Messages" which generates new text block with
with all strings collected from RNA.
- Changed script for updating blender.pot so now it appends
messages collected from rna to automatically gathered messages.
To update .pot you have to re-generate messages.txt using "Get Messages"
operator and then run update_pot script.
- Clean up old translation stuff which wasn't used and most probably
wouldn't be used.
- Return back "International Fonts" option, so if it's disabled, no
gettext lookups happens on draw.
- Merged read_homefile function back. No need in splitting it.
TODO:
- Custom fonts and font size.
Current font isn't nice at least for russian locale, it's
difficult to read it.
- Put references to messages.txt so gettext can merge translation when
name/description of some property changes.

scripts/startup/ is now the only auto-loading script dir which gives some speedup for blender loading too.
~/.blender/2.56/scripts/startup works for auto-loading scripts too.
